Updating a previous item, Tennessee Titans TE Bo Scaife is unlikely to return to the team next season, according to The Tennessean's Jim Wyatt. "I enjoyed myself. I have a lot of great memories.

Tennesse Titans TE Bo Scaife was a healthy scratch in Week 15 against the Houston Texans, according to John Glennon, of The Tennessean. "We absolutely had to come into this game with eight (D-linemen) because of injuries and that was the logical place to go," Fisher said of Scaife being inactive.

Tennessee Titans TE Bo Scaife said he believes QB Vince Young does not feel welcome by the team, according to Jim Wyatt, of The Tennessean.

"That is between him and Coach Fish and no one knows what is going on between them two. But if people knew the real story they might understand the situation a little better." Scaife admitted players might have some hard feelings about Young's actions after the loss to the Washington Redskins, when the quarterback cursed head coach Jeff Fisher and left the locker room abruptly. "I know his teammates definitely want him here," Scaife said. "The more I think about that, I guess the locker room might be divided up. But I know all the guys on my side (offense), we all love VY."
